...Cake Adventures...

A friend of mine got married over the weekend and asked myself and another good friend, SandraJP, to make her wedding cake. This excited the two of us to no end after our 'baby shower' and 'surprise' cakes we created earlier this year.
Whereas the other two cakes were ours to design and do with as we please, we had to ensure the wedding cake was polished and beautiful. Now, this friend is not your typical bride, hell, she is so off the path that everyone around her loves her so! Thus SandraJP and I knew we would have fun with this. I decided to blog this adventure and took pictures along the way.

Here are the first two cakes we created:

We have a onesie for a new baby. I confess, we did not design this ourselves, but found a picture of it from a magazine and put our special touch to it.













We made a hot mama for our friend Leon and his surprise birthday party. We had a lot of fun with it and will surely create it again!















And now comes the wedding cake adventure! We had some parameters: it had to be carrot cake - SandraJP's carrot cake is so good you will want to be her best friend just to get a piece! And our wedding lady had a crest that a family member created that she wanted on the cake somewhere. Other than that, the design was all ours! Let the fun begin!!

SandraJP came over with the cakes the night before and we layered, crumb coated and froze them over night. The next morning, we were off to icing and decorating! This is the final product in all its glory.



The Bride and Groom loved it and, I must admit, I think SandraJP and I did a fabulous job. What do you think?
